/* Some identifiers like Constraint name, Cursor name, Function name, Index name, Trigger name * are limited to 18 character in DB2*/ public static final int DB2_MAX_IDENTIFIER_LENGTH18 = 18; ----- Original Message ----- From: "Philipp Hug" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, December 12, 2004 12:50 PM Subject: Identifier Limitations - once again > I know this has been discussed before, but there hasn't been a consus if > those limitations should be extended... > At the moment, I patched Derby to allow longer identifier for > index/constraint names, because the CMP engine I'm using, uses > getMaxColumnNameLength() as limitation for index name. > Does anyone know of any metadata attribute that would specify the > maximum allowed length for an index/constraint name?
